seems to be a tad less than crysis, am i wrong?

and i think theres a mistake, it should be 8800 gts instead of 8600 GTS

:O wow recommended 8600gts thats some high hopes for playing this game on max settings now...

i was shocked just as u.....and world has seen one crysis..and seen its sells too:no:....that enough reason i guess to support 8600gts...right.....:hap2:...max mean without aa on 8600gts afcourse...15-20 fps....:rofl:
 
i cant belive ppl comparing Crysis graphics with FC2...FC2 is no where near Crysis. (jus looking at the screen shots any one can tell these differences)

the boulders in FC2 are pretty much plain..no bumps at all..

compare it with crysis..with beautifully bump mapped rocks and boulders and the textures are so detailed.

the characters in FC2 look pretty much like characters in HL2 (similar graphical fidelity)

i guess jus the face of physco has as much polygons as the whole character in FC2.

plus the vegetation is done way better in Crysis (talking abt the textures)
and finally is am fedup of that over saturated HDR (seems to be there in every game now a days)..its a pain to the eye..vice versa the realistic looking lighting of Crysis.

yup,the graphics are nowhere near crysis which should explain the 8600gts,but the day night cycle and weather system will rock,put in a good story like cod4 and we have a winner.:ohyeah:

edit:[rant]crysis is a next gen game,like pc games should be and not a measly console port with better textures and ability to turn on AA,but then you can't help it if people like running and gunning of cod4 and killing terrorists saying its better gameplay while they diss the running and cloaking of crysis and killing koreans saying the gameplay is meh.
i think crytek shudave put crysis bang in the middle of middle east,the hero fighting for the world's oil crisis,for there does not seem to be enough hate for aliens and koreans in this world.:P [/rant]
 
I guess an over-clocked E2140 and 4850 will run FARCRY2 fine on a 22".

Am good to go.. thank god!

well according to stats...americans hate Jews the most and then the muslims , followed by the blacks and the gays/lesbians.

so COD4 did so well and so will RE5 and FC2...no one hate's koreans or the aliens :bleh:

may be Crytek should try homosexual aliens and korens..may be then ppl will like it ;)

never thought on this aspect of a game's success:S:S
 
finally i can run fc2 on my 8800gtx without any upgrade...though the game doesnt look as good crysis but can be enjoyed in high settings i think.
